Description:
Monica Waters is
a television editor living in Los Angeles reluctantly passing through her
thirties in a damaged marriage to the love of her life Alex. They've worked
hard since Alex's affair years ago to get to a place of predictable happiness
in all areas except the bedroom. She's learned to accept the mediocre sex life
in exchange for a comfortable and stabilizing companionship to her best friend.
When an artist
from New York named Quinn Matthews moves in next door, all of the fire Monica
has learned to suppress flares an obsession into a scalding and dangerously
secret relationship. Quinn invigorates her lust for art, flesh and a life she
hasn't been living and forces her to make the most difficult decision of her
life. Will she clench to her commitment and history with Alex or be swept away
by the life and lust she used to dream of with Quinn?

Book Excerpt
Monica never heard Alex
leave for his hike. She didn’t even hear him get out of bed. That's why the
knock at the front door at seven thirty startled her. She stumbled into the sun
dress thrown across the hamper and crept into the living room. Quinn's
unmistakable silhouette was standing at the front door. She unlocked it
noticing his usual shorts and flip-flops with no shirt. She thought she must
still be dreaming at the sight of his golden and tattooed body.
“I couldn’t sleep,” he
rushed in, taking her face in his hands and lifting her from the foundation
with his lips. For a minute she forgot they were in clear view of the park,
overcome by his display. His biceps gripped her body like the ace bandage on
her ankle. She anchored to his shoulders as he herded her backward and kicked
the door closed. She lost balance, but he scooped her up faster then she could
comprehend.
“Wait! No! Put me
down!”
He ignored her, taking
her lips with a forceful breath until she struggled to her feet.
“Not in here. It’s
dangerous.”
“You like
dangerous." I love it!
"Not in my living
room."
"Then where? You
call it. I want to be inside you," he said in her ear, "now."
Fuck it! She climbed him like a tree. His lips
pulling her in as his strong hands supported her ass. She loved the feel of his
hard length grinding her into the back of the sofa. There was a gasp through a
held breath as she helped him wiggle her panties to the floor.
About
the Author:
Im a designer, author, wife and dog-lover living in the South Pasadena
area of California. I got my BFA in Film Production from the Academy of
Art University in San Francisco, but my love of a good story came way before
college. I remember writing my first full story in fifth grade on a
typewriter. I cut and pasted it into a book, complete with cardboard cover and
taped binding. Things have changed a lot since then. With the magnificent
digital age I can produce books and give them to the world without a sticky
mess.
In collegeb numerous instructors and peers praised my
dialogue pushed me to hone my storytelling skills. Of course
the need to cut and paste was still there, so I went into the world of
Production Design and Art Direction for films and television. It
gave me the ability to connect design to storytelling in a way that no other
career can. The past 18 years have spun a unique perspective on visually
emotional tales of relationships and the thread that ties all things together.
Now I’m shifting focus on the driving force thatn brought me here… stories. I
hope that I can share a unique perspective on life, love and the pursuit in all
of the above.
